- 1:26Speaker 2: We talked about it last week how it's a week
- 1:28Speaker 2: to week league, and last week we got a little
- 1:31Speaker 2: bit more of a humble pie slice. But it was
- 1:34Speaker 2: in a different form and just a really oddly finishing game,
- 1:38Speaker 2: And we'll go over all of that type of stuff
- 1:40Speaker 2: and it just reminds you once again that you know,
- 1:42Speaker 2: you never want to count your chickens before they hatch.

- 1:54Speaker 2: at the Crew DT. I mean, we knew that it
- 1:57Speaker 2: was gonna be a big game there down in Htown,
- 1:59Speaker 2: and it didn't just a point, but boy, it ended
- 2:02Speaker 2: a little bit too similarly than some of us would
- 2:04Speaker 2: like to admit, for sure.
- 2:05Speaker 3: Rob Rob, Rob, what's up man? Happy Friday night, Nicol City.
- 2:10Speaker 3: We're out here at Tgif you know that last week
- 2:13Speaker 3: I said it was good that the show was on Friday.
- 2:16Speaker 3: Let me settle down a little, get into the bounce
- 2:18Speaker 3: back Texans game this week. You know, I don't want
- 2:21Speaker 3: to repeat myself, but I'm happy it's on Friday. I'm
- 2:24Speaker 3: kind of got that positivity looming again for next week.
- 2:27Speaker 3: But we're a day later with a Monday night game,
- 2:29Speaker 3: so we're just like the Bills practice schedule everything moves
- 2:32Speaker 3: back a day and we get it rocking. So a
- 2:34Speaker 3: lot to get into tonight. I'm always excited to be here,
- 2:37Speaker 3: Rob as always Nicol City Crew. Let's get a cracking many.
- 2:41Speaker 1: Click clacking me back.
- 2:42Speaker 2: You know, it's funny because you know, when I thought
- 2:44Speaker 2: about my my notes, and I didn't even share notes
- 2:46Speaker 2: with you this week if you if you notice DT,
- 2:48Speaker 2: because you know, my my brain's been all over the place.
- 2:51Speaker 2: The anger that I felt initially after the game was
- 2:56Speaker 2: because of the past. And sometimes when you're emotional, you
- 2:59Speaker 2: make you know, different comments, or you'll make different things.
- 3:01Speaker 1: And you know, so some of my notes from the
- 3:03Speaker 1: beginning were just you know, crazy.
- 3:04Speaker 2: So I was like, well, by the time I was
- 3:06Speaker 2: going to send them to you, I was like, you
- 3:07Speaker 2: know what, it's not that I don't feel that way anymore,
- 3:09Speaker 2: but like you just spoke to that, you know, I
- 3:11Speaker 2: had a chance to finally calm down a little bit
- 3:13Speaker 2: about it. Now, we've got to go back to the
- 3:15Speaker 2: scene of crime before we can sift to Monday night
- 3:17Speaker 2: and DT. As everybody knows, you know, Nicol City Crew.
- 3:20Speaker 2: Bill's mafia bills lose twenty three twenty in a nail
- 3:23Speaker 2: biter to the Houston Texans. But again it was the
- 3:26Speaker 2: fashion in which we lost that was the most frustrating
- 3:29Speaker 2: part for me DT especially on Sunday in the thick
- 3:31Speaker 2: of it, because of the fact that it reminded me
- 3:33Speaker 2: of the past and some of the mistakes that seemed
- 3:37Speaker 2: to be cropping up again when it comes to McDermott,
- 3:40Speaker 2: when it comes to clock management, some of the decisions
- 3:43Speaker 2: that he makes and different things like that. Now, as
- 3:45Speaker 2: the week progressed, I realized that I have to lay
- 3:48Speaker 2: a little bit more blame at seventeen's feet, and I
- 3:50Speaker 2: know that that makes a lot of members of the
- 3:52Speaker 2: mafia uncomfortable as well. Whether he was concussed, whether he
- 3:55Speaker 2: was just not feeling well, it doesn't matter. He didn't
- 3:57Speaker 2: get even hurt until I think it was fourth quarter.
- 4:00Speaker 2: You know, a lot of bad decisions before that, you
- 4:02Speaker 2: know what I mean, in respects of his game and
- 4:04Speaker 2: the way that he was throwing the ball, and then
- 4:06Speaker 2: obviously the receivers. We talk about everybody eats and we
- 4:08Speaker 2: talk about how we didn't really buy it, and then
- 4:10Speaker 2: obviously reared as ugly head last week with the with
- 4:13Speaker 2: Shakir being out but one of the things that I
- 4:15Speaker 2: thought of, DT, and I want you to speak to it,
- 4:17Speaker 2: is that if Shaqui means that much to the offense's
- 4:20Speaker 2: passing game, that's not really a good sign either because
- 4:22Speaker 2: of the fact that if you're lying on one guy
- 4:24Speaker 2: like that, I thought it was everybody eats last week.
- 4:26Speaker 2: I think it was just so many different things together, DT,
- 4:29Speaker 2: that really made this a clusterfuck of a game. It was.
- 4:32Speaker 2: It was pretty bad when it when it got when
- 4:34Speaker 2: the clock hit triple zerials.
- 4:36Speaker 3: Well you look at that, you know, the Ravens game,
- 4:39Speaker 3: and it was got beat up in all phases of
- 4:41Speaker 3: that game, all defense, the trenches, special teams, literally every
- 4:46Speaker 3: aspect you got beat up this week. You know, the
- 4:49Speaker 3: score was a lot closer, obviously, but you know, I
- 4:52Speaker 3: think it was a very similar mantra as the week before.
- 4:55Speaker 3: You know, they got they got bullied kind of in
- 4:58Speaker 3: all directions out there on that field. The defense did
- 5:02Speaker 3: come back in the second half and held their own
- 5:04Speaker 3: and come up with a couple of big, crucial turnovers.
- 5:07Speaker 3: And I mean Sean McDermott obviously has his hands on
- 5:10Speaker 3: that and Bobby Babbache have their hands on that to
- 5:11Speaker 3: kind of lock down and get some plays that to happen.
- 5:15Speaker 3: But you know, realistically, the ball bounces, the luck bounces.
- 5:20Speaker 3: You know, our luck could have bounced to win that game.
- 5:22Speaker 3: But Terrell Bernard covering two guys and getting the interception
- 5:26Speaker 3: was luck. The fourth down play where you know where
- 5:29Speaker 3: we stop him on fourth down is luck. And then
- 5:31Speaker 3: obviously the the fumble to get it at the ten
- 5:34Speaker 3: yard line with a chance to go up or tie.
- 5:35Speaker 3: The game had to bounce our way for luck. So
- 5:38Speaker 3: we did get brakes in that game just to get
- 5:40Speaker 3: back in it, right, So I don't want to be,
- 5:42Speaker 3: you know, super negative on that part. But the Ravens
- 5:46Speaker 3: game was a lot different in score, but I think
- 5:48Speaker 3: we got beat up all around the field in a
- 5:50Speaker 3: similar fashion on Sunday in Houston, rob And that's kind
- 5:53Speaker 3: of the concerning thing as we go into you know,
- 5:55Speaker 3: only week five. We got a lot of game left,
- 5:57Speaker 3: a lot of a lot of wins that we could
- 5:59Speaker 3: get kind of coming into the to the to the rock,
- 6:02Speaker 3: but you know, we need to really really make it happen.
- 6:06Speaker 3: So the Khalisakir being is he the number one, it
- 6:11Speaker 3: looked like it who wasn't on the field really at all?
- 6:16Speaker 3: His rookie year kind of emerged but had extremely low
- 6:19Speaker 3: snap counts, you know, going into last year and then
- 6:22Speaker 3: so nobody people thought he was going to have a
- 6:24Speaker 3: better breakout year. But with one week with him out
- 6:27Speaker 3: of the lineup, he's the reason. I don't know if
- 6:29Speaker 3: you can say that right. So, a lot of a
- 6:32Speaker 3: lot of things to dig into, a lot of things
- 6:33Speaker 3: to digest here, but we got beat up. I think
- 6:37Speaker 3: just as much as the Ravens game on Sunday. The
- 6:40Speaker 3: score kind of maybe overshadowed that. But I think this
- 6:42Speaker 3: team's got to look at it like this.
- 6:44Speaker 1: Yeah, well, it's interesting that you said that.
- 6:46Speaker 2: You know, I think that the defense played better, and
- 6:48Speaker 2: even there were some pockets in the Baltimore game, obviously
- 6:51Speaker 2: second half where they'd make those two stops in the
- 6:52Speaker 2: third quarter before that fake pass, where you could say
- 6:55Speaker 2: that the defense was blowing up and starting to play
- 6:57Speaker 2: a little bit better.
- 6:58Speaker 1: Last week, I thought that they played pretty well. You know.
- 7:00Speaker 2: I don't have any really, you know, quroblems or problems
- 7:02Speaker 2: with the defense last week. I think it's just the
- 7:04Speaker 2: inconsistency of the offense in respects to this whole everybody
- 7:08Speaker 2: eats thing. You mean, you know, it was highlighted last
- 7:10Speaker 2: week DT. You know, they were not getting open those
- 7:12Speaker 2: wide receivers. There was no separation that was being created.
- 7:15Speaker 2: I think that they did metrics on it throughout the week.
- 7:17Speaker 2: If you listen to WGR, they've been talking about how
- 7:19Speaker 2: I think it was like fourth. You know, it was
- 7:21Speaker 2: like fourth lowest in the league and respects to separation
- 7:23Speaker 2: for those wide receivers that created on Sunday. And then
- 7:26Speaker 2: what it did was it compounded by the fact that
- 7:29Speaker 2: you know, Josh really wasn't that good. And I'm not
- 7:31Speaker 2: talking I'm talking to injury aside and we can get
- 7:33Speaker 2: into that little drama you know, before we transition to
- 7:36Speaker 2: the Jets, but you know, to be honest, he wasn't
- 7:39Speaker 2: that good all day long. I mean, even leading up
- 7:41Speaker 2: to that last drive where they've got that decision where
- 7:43Speaker 2: they decided, you know, to pass three times and no
- 7:45Speaker 2: he's nine at twenty seven DT.
- 7:46Speaker 1: When have we ever seen Josh Allen play that.
- 7:48Speaker 2: I think that I can unequivocally say that was the
- 7:50Speaker 2: worst Josh Allen game that I've ever seen him play
- 7:52Speaker 2: in the Josh Allen era.
- 7:53Speaker 1: And I'll take it even under that.
- 7:56Speaker 2: The Green Bay performance and that was like his rookie
- 7:57Speaker 2: year when we want to scoring like ten points or
- 7:59Speaker 2: something like that against Aaron Rodgers in Lambeau. It was
- 8:02Speaker 2: really bad, DT, and he was spraying the ball all
- 8:04Speaker 2: over the field. You know now he was heard. He
- 8:07Speaker 2: was under duress a lot more. The offensive line obviously
- 8:10Speaker 2: holds a little bit of weight and responsibility with that
- 8:12Speaker 2: as well, But it was a situation where he never
- 8:14Speaker 2: got comfortable. The pockets never seemed to be comfortable for him,
- 8:17Speaker 2: and even though we were scrambling out, there was just
- 8:19Speaker 2: nothing there if you look at it, even all twenty two,
- 8:22Speaker 2: there was just nothing there DT.
- 8:24Speaker 1: And I've heard a lot of people talk about trust.
- 8:26Speaker 2: This weekend, and you could tell that their chemistry is
- 8:28Speaker 2: not there and that Josh doesn't trust those guys.
- 8:31Speaker 1: And then they were pointing to Shakir not being there.
- 8:32Speaker 2: But man, like you said, week five, you've had all
- 8:35Speaker 2: of preseason and training camp, mini camp. That's just not
- 8:40Speaker 2: that's just not good enough for me in respects to
- 8:41Speaker 2: an excuse. But it does look like that might be
- 8:44Speaker 2: the case that Josh is just not comfortable with these
- 8:46Speaker 2: guys yet. And I don't I don't necessarily know where
- 8:48Speaker 2: to feel about that because it's it's been a while now,
- 8:50Speaker 2: they've been working together for a minute.
- 8:51Speaker 3: Lack of lack of preparation, you know, lack of preparation
- 8:54Speaker 3: when it comes to that, when you know, it goes
- 8:56Speaker 3: back to our off season conversations of you know, what
- 8:59Speaker 3: was the plan? What was the ace up the sleeve?
- 9:01Speaker 3: And I think we were really kind of putting all
- 9:03Speaker 3: the eggs in the basket of you know, well, seventeen will,
- 9:06Speaker 3: We'll figure it out. Seventeen will figure it out. And
- 9:09Speaker 3: you know he he has and I believe he will
- 9:12Speaker 3: this season for sure. But you know, like any it's
- 9:15Speaker 3: not just seventeen, it's any quarterback in this league. It's
- 9:17Speaker 3: a it's a tempo and momentum game, right And you
- 9:21Speaker 3: saw it in the first three games of the year.
- 9:23Speaker 3: When when one seven gets in that rhythm, he gets
- 9:26Speaker 3: in that tempo, he's borderline unstoppable. I mean, we can
- 9:29Speaker 3: all agree with that when he's on that. When he's on,
- 9:32Speaker 3: he's borderline unstoppable. When he's off, he has struggled to
- 9:36Speaker 3: get back into it. And in this with this roster,
- 9:38Speaker 3: with this team, we put that on him this year. Hey,
- 9:41Speaker 3: there's gonna be some down and out times and it's
- 9:43Speaker 3: up to you to get us back into it. So,
- 9:45Speaker 3: you know, it's like, uh, you know your brother, right,
- 9:48Speaker 3: if somebody you can talk shit to your brother, but
- 9:50Speaker 3: if somebody else is talking shit about your brother, you're
- 9:52Speaker 3: gonna be You're gonna be pissed off. And and I
- 9:55Speaker 3: agree in that statement. Anybody talking shit about Josh Allen
- 9:57Speaker 3: this week, I'm gonna be the first one to defend him.
- 9:59Speaker 3: But I think we can get critical tonight on Nicols
- 10:02Speaker 3: City crew of one to seven. I mean, this is
- 10:06Speaker 3: not the rookie anymore, the year seven. You know, going
- 10:09Speaker 3: into a team that you are have to be the alpha,
- 10:11Speaker 3: you have to be the leader. And granted everything was
- 10:14Speaker 3: not his fault on Sunday by any means, nine for thirty,
- 10:17Speaker 3: it falls at your feet a little bit. Nine for
- 10:19Speaker 3: thirty a quarterback hasn't had that bad of a completion
- 10:22Speaker 3: percentage in twelve years.
- 10:24Speaker 1: Yeah, you know.
- 10:25Speaker 3: Yeah, so it's not just the worst game of his
- 10:28Speaker 3: pro career, it's the worst game of an NFL quarterback
- 10:31Speaker 3: in literally since since we were kicking it. I was kicking
- 10:35Speaker 3: it in college, you know, So like this is a big,
- 10:38Speaker 3: big deal in an alarming rate of we're chanting MVP,
- 10:42Speaker 3: MVP on Monday Night football against the Jaguars, and you know,
- 10:47Speaker 3: then back to back games of being a bottom tier
- 10:49Speaker 3: quarterback in the league, and obviously nobody thinks he's a
- 10:52Speaker 3: bottom tier quarterback in the league, but the statistics and
- 10:55Speaker 3: the performance were not even bottom tier, were like dead
- 10:57Speaker 3: last in yards and you know other bow Nicks who
- 11:01Speaker 3: you know in the in a brain game with sixty
- 11:03Speaker 3: yards and they still got to win there. So it's
- 11:06Speaker 3: a lot of it comes to the feet. And you know,
- 11:08Speaker 3: you talk about the late game decisions and things of
- 11:10Speaker 3: that nature. Well, if it is Joe Brady or Sean
- 11:14Speaker 3: McDermott kind of mismanaging that game, that's Josh Allen. This
- 11:20Speaker 3: is where I'm relying on you to make a change,
- 11:22Speaker 3: to realize game management and game situation, to go out
- 11:26Speaker 3: there and make the plays you need to make. When
- 11:28Speaker 3: they get the fumble on the ten yard line with
- 11:31Speaker 3: a chance to take the lead or you know, or.
- 11:35Speaker 2: Or tie, so I can I give him a pass there?
- 11:41Speaker 3: I'll give him a pass there. Kind of maybe came
- 11:43Speaker 3: out discombobulated even whatever it was, it wasn't ready, but
- 11:46Speaker 3: through kind of threw a don to James Cook on
- 11:48Speaker 3: the sideline. It just didn't come out with it, and
- 11:49Speaker 3: that would have been you know, first to go from
- 11:51Speaker 3: the five. But I'll give the pass there. What I
- 11:54Speaker 3: don't give a pass on is on the two yard line,
- 11:58Speaker 3: you know, when we have to. It's been talked about
- 12:00Speaker 3: all week. Why do we shot play it three times? Whatever?
- 12:03Speaker 3: If we ran the ball three times, they got three timeouts,
- 12:05Speaker 3: it's gonna be pretty much the same result if we
- 12:07Speaker 3: ran the ball three times.
- 12:08Speaker 1: So I don't maybe maybe I'm.
- 12:11Speaker 3: Not like I don't mind the first down, shot play whatever,
- 12:15Speaker 3: But then second down comes around and if if that
- 12:17Speaker 3: play call is another shot play, that's where that's where
- 12:20Speaker 3: one seven has to you know, step in and say no,
- 12:23Speaker 3: like we need to get this first down whatever means necessary.
- 12:26Speaker 3: And I'm not making excuses for the guy, but the
- 12:29Speaker 3: hand has got to be broken, Rob right, something's wrong
- 12:32Speaker 3: with that hand. He is a completely different runner of
- 12:35Speaker 3: the football with that glove on, you know. Yeah, the
- 12:38Speaker 3: Josh Allen of old, even in these and even in
- 12:41Speaker 3: these game on Sunday and the Ravens game, is cutting
- 12:44Speaker 3: it up and getting a few of those first downs
- 12:46Speaker 3: when they punt. What was it, seven out of eight
- 12:49Speaker 3: possessions they punted in the first half. Eventually he says,
- 12:53Speaker 3: screw this, I need to get to the sticks and
- 12:55Speaker 3: get the first down and get the tempo going because
- 12:57Speaker 3: the tempo is where I'm most comfortable.
- 12:58Speaker 1: He doesn't want to get a hit, now, you can
- 13:00Speaker 1: tell that exactly.
- 13:01Speaker 3: So I'm so on that on the whatever the play
- 13:04Speaker 3: call was, if he was getting down from Joe Brady
- 13:07Speaker 3: that to go up to mccollins or who you know,
- 13:09Speaker 3: whoever the hell he's throwing to deep there, first down, whatever,
- 13:13Speaker 3: second down you need. This is where I need my
- 13:15Speaker 3: seventh year quarterback to step up and game you know,
- 13:19Speaker 3: game awareness and know what they have to do to
- 13:21Speaker 3: get that first down. So I guess all week I
- 13:23Speaker 3: was saying, like I guess, the excuse was maybe he
- 13:26Speaker 3: was concussed because he wasn't thinking clearly in that situation.
- 13:30Speaker 3: If he wasn't concussed, then it is his fault for
- 13:33Speaker 3: doing that. So I am critical. And the fact of
- 13:36Speaker 3: you know, you have to have the game awareness to
- 13:38Speaker 3: get to the sticks, to run out that clock, to
- 13:40Speaker 3: get into overtime and see where it goes, and you
- 13:43Speaker 3: know you're gonna need I'm gonna need a lot more
- 13:45Speaker 3: of that this season. It's the only gonna be the
- 13:48Speaker 3: only way we survived. This team isn't gonna lift you
- 13:51Speaker 3: up as much as it has in previous years. So
- 13:53Speaker 3: you have to be the guy to do that. You
- 13:55Speaker 3: have to call the audible up the line, you have
- 13:57Speaker 3: to tuck it and do whatever. You know, his miraculous
- 14:00Speaker 3: third down runs he always does let's see let's see
- 14:03Speaker 3: that again. And you know, so I'm critical in the
- 14:06Speaker 3: fact of it's got to be he's got to do more.
- 14:09Speaker 3: We've been asking him no more. Now he has to
- 14:12Speaker 3: do more. And he doesn't have to be all game.
- 14:13Speaker 3: But in game situations, you can't go nine for thirty
- 14:16Speaker 3: when you're punting seven out of eight possessions. You've got
- 14:19Speaker 3: to find a way to get a first down and
- 14:21Speaker 3: will your team back into it because they obviously follow you.
- 14:24Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 14:24Speaker 2: Yeah, And one of the problems that I had with
- 14:26Speaker 2: the with the entire sequence, I had many problems with it,
- 14:29Speaker 2: but one of the problems that I had was that,
- 14:31Speaker 2: you know, even on that second down that you're talking about,
- 14:33Speaker 2: I would have preferred what I said was, I would
- 14:35Speaker 2: have preferred to run the ball three times. I understand.
- 14:37Speaker 2: I've said it on Twitter, you know what I mean.
- 14:38Speaker 2: I understand what you're saying that the clock and stuff
- 14:41Speaker 2: like that. The only difference is that they have zero timeouts.
- 14:43Speaker 2: So because of that, I think that they needed almost
- 14:45Speaker 2: every second that they had.
- 14:46Speaker 1: To to get back into.
- 14:47Speaker 2: Range, and that included a Robert Woods you know good
- 14:50Speaker 2: you know pup return. So yeah, because of that, like
- 14:52Speaker 2: I would have just ran the ball and tried to
- 14:54Speaker 2: find a way to make them use their timeouts. And
- 14:56Speaker 2: everybody completely negates, or at least on Twitter space, they
- 14:59Speaker 2: completely negate the fact that you could possibly get a
- 15:01Speaker 2: first down, Like it's not just you know, sign sealed
- 15:03Speaker 2: delivered that you don't get one.
- 15:04Speaker 1: So I would have liked to see the run.
- 15:06Speaker 2: The problem with the pass on second down is that
- 15:08Speaker 2: because Kean Coleman, as we both know, made a great
- 15:11Speaker 2: play on that first play, that's a that's a pass interference.
- 15:13Speaker 2: The only reason that Houston declines is because it's that
- 15:15Speaker 2: we're backed up, so they just want the game to
- 15:17Speaker 2: be over with and and and us to lose a down.
- 15:19Speaker 2: The problem is that I thought that there were open
- 15:23Speaker 2: options with with Kincaid and and Coleman on underneath routes
- 15:27Speaker 2: where I do need them to think. Now, I'm not
- 15:29Speaker 2: gonna make this whole episode about was Josh Allen concustomed
- 15:31Speaker 2: what the case may be. My thing is that his nature,
- 15:34Speaker 2: even concussion or not, his nature is aggressive and he
- 15:37Speaker 2: likes to be aggressive and stuff like that. You have to,
- 15:39Speaker 2: you know, one of the greatest things about Brian Dabele
- 15:41Speaker 2: was that he was able to rain in that that
- 15:42Speaker 2: stallion a little bit and have him, you know, see
- 15:45Speaker 2: the game from a different perspective.
- 15:46Speaker 1: There was that that.
- 15:47Speaker 2: Turning point was that New England game where he throws
- 15:48Speaker 2: all those picks and then he finally starts to listen
- 15:51Speaker 2: to Dable and really take in his teaching about, you know,
- 15:54Speaker 2: not not trying to go for the shot play every
- 15:56Speaker 2: single play because it always isn't going to be worth
- 15:58Speaker 2: it and beneficial to the team. I need him to
- 16:00Speaker 2: have some type of situation awareness or I need Brady
- 16:04Speaker 2: to help insulate him in those situations where you're absolutely right,
- 16:07Speaker 2: DT just get the first down because of the fact
- 16:09Speaker 2: that you can take it to overtime and then let
- 16:11Speaker 2: the chips fall where they may because we could win
- 16:13Speaker 2: the toss.
- 16:13Speaker 1: We could lose.
- 16:14Speaker 2: The toss of coin has two sides to it. But
- 16:16Speaker 2: I was really frustrated when I saw the All twenty
- 16:18Speaker 2: two and saw that there were options. It wasn't just
- 16:21Speaker 2: you know that only option was was a chuck it
- 16:23Speaker 2: downfield of mac Collins, which is a horrible idea within itself.
- 16:26Speaker 2: But the fact that you had some underneath stuff and
- 16:28Speaker 2: that's the type of stuff where don't tell me all
- 16:30Speaker 2: summer that Josh Allen is the elevator man and stuff
- 16:33Speaker 2: like that, and he's gonna raise, you know, tide raises
- 16:34Speaker 2: all boats. High tide raises all boats, and Mike, he's
- 16:37Speaker 2: making decisions like that.
- 16:38Speaker 1: Again, I'm not railing on him or anything like that.
- 16:41Speaker 2: And I don't know if he was concussed or not,
- 16:42Speaker 2: but I do know that his nature anyway is an
- 16:44Speaker 2: altered aggressive nature, and I need maybe the coordinator to
- 16:48Speaker 2: help him rain himself in a little bit. They do
- 16:52Speaker 2: have a chance to talk. Dt They've got a chance
- 16:53Speaker 2: to talk for up to fifteen seconds left in the clock. Hey, Josh,
- 16:56Speaker 2: listen seventeen. I need you to be looking. I've got this,
- 16:58Speaker 2: this and this for you already baked into this play.
- 17:01Speaker 2: Make sure we're looking at eighty six. Make sure we're
- 17:02Speaker 2: looking at zero on this one, because again we're just
- 17:04Speaker 2: trying to move the chains and then we're going to
- 17:05Speaker 2: get this thing into overtime and recalibrate.
- 17:08Speaker 1: I just I thought that they were poor decisions.
- 17:11Speaker 2: And again I don't even want to get on Sean McDermott,
- 17:13Speaker 2: but I just, strictly seventeen, I thought that they were
- 17:15Speaker 2: some decisions where I need him to be either a
- 17:19Speaker 2: better decision maker or I need the people that call
- 17:21Speaker 2: the plays, chiefly, you know, Joe Brady, to kind of
- 17:24Speaker 2: insulate a little bit.
- 17:25Speaker 1: And I just didn't see that at all.
- 17:26Speaker 2: It almost seemed, especially with Joe Brady's comments the next day,
- 17:29Speaker 2: it seemed like he really wasn't apologetic about it, Like,
- 17:32Speaker 2: you know what we called the plays that we called,
- 17:33Speaker 2: and then him and Sean McDermott were kind of saying
- 17:35Speaker 2: different singing different tunes, and it was just a whole
- 17:37Speaker 2: weird vibe for the first couple of days of Star.
- 17:39Speaker 3: So if you're calling those plays and that's where one
- 17:41Speaker 3: seven eats to make the changes and get it done,
- 17:44Speaker 3: I mean, it's almost an analogy of like you know,
- 17:47Speaker 3: drowning and the doc is right there, right. All you
- 17:50Speaker 3: got to do is grab on the dock and pull
- 17:51Speaker 3: yourself up and we continue to kick our feet and
- 17:54Speaker 3: you know, splash around in the water and the docks
- 17:57Speaker 3: right there, right, So it's got to be better. I
- 18:01Speaker 3: think one seven knows that, you know, hopefully, you know,
- 18:04Speaker 3: it's gonna be a long year if he doesn't. Nine
- 18:06Speaker 3: for thirty is embarrassing. He knows that, you know, literally
- 18:10Speaker 3: and the leading MVP candidate and then probably to some
- 18:13Speaker 3: of the worst games of his career back to back.
- 18:15Speaker 3: So this it's it's he's proven he's been teachable, uh
- 18:21Speaker 3: in his career, but this is teaching almost himself. You know,
- 18:25Speaker 3: it's not the coach teaching him something. It's it's him
- 18:27Speaker 3: teaching himself, like, Okay, this is my gig, this is
- 18:30Speaker 3: my Cadillac. I need to drive it, you know this,
- 18:33Speaker 3: So it I'm not completely worried. I think they're that
- 18:37Speaker 3: hand injury does have a lot to do with it.
- 18:38Speaker 3: I think he's obviously been beaten up the last two
- 18:41Speaker 3: weeks after not getting touched, you know, basically the first
- 18:44Speaker 3: the week, two and three, he's gotten peppered for two
- 18:47Speaker 3: weeks in a row. So he's banged up, he's hurting.
- 18:50Speaker 3: You know, who knows what actually is you know what
- 18:53Speaker 3: what hurts on him? And maybe he was just trying
- 18:55Speaker 3: to because it was so bad, he was trying to like, Okay,
- 18:59Speaker 3: I can do it. Shot play here and we score
- 19:01Speaker 3: a nine yard touchdown and win the game, and it
- 19:03Speaker 3: raises everything.
- 19:04Speaker 1: Right, that's not how the game had been going.
- 19:07Speaker 3: That And that's old sugar high ish y gosh, you
- 19:10Speaker 3: know type of vibe. So did it last year in
- 19:13Speaker 3: the opening game against the Jets, played five hundred with
- 19:15Speaker 3: the defense and and and owned it and then came
- 19:18Speaker 3: back and regrouped and got it done. So completely confident
- 19:22Speaker 3: in one seven by all means. But it's okay to
- 19:24Speaker 3: hold him accountable for that nine out of thirty at
- 19:27Speaker 3: one point. You know, that's on you, bro, Like that's
- 19:30Speaker 3: that's on you.
- 19:31Speaker 2: That's true. Yeah, I agree with that. And and before
- 19:33Speaker 2: we transition, you know, to the to the money and
- 19:35Speaker 2: night football, I just I have to get this off
- 19:36Speaker 2: my chest because I've had you know, some some spirited
- 19:39Speaker 2: Twitter debates and battles and spaces and stuff like that
- 19:43Speaker 2: this past week.
- 19:43Speaker 1: You know. One of the things that I have a
- 19:45Speaker 1: problem with saw McDermott is that.
- 19:48Speaker 2: You know, he's always What's the way that I want
- 19:51Speaker 2: to put this that if he's the CEO, okay, and
- 19:54Speaker 2: he's the boss, that means that he's Bobby's boss, and
- 19:57Speaker 2: that means that he's Joe's boss. One of the things
- 19:59Speaker 2: that that made me start to look at him differently,
- 20:01Speaker 2: and I'll be honest, I'll raise my hand and cop
- 20:03Speaker 2: to it that I have never liked him since thirteen seconds. Now.
- 20:07Speaker 2: I know that all Bill's fans are not that way.
- 20:09Speaker 2: I know that all Bill's Mafia doesn't, you know, share
- 20:11Speaker 2: in that sentiment. However, I started to look at him
- 20:14Speaker 2: sideways after thirteen seconds because it was such a glorious
- 20:17Speaker 2: blunder that I just was never able to forgive him.
- 20:19Speaker 2: Because the nightmare in the back of my head is
- 20:21Speaker 2: that thirteen seconds was our best chance. Obviously, nobody in
- 20:24Speaker 2: Bill's Mafia wants it to be. I don't want it
- 20:25Speaker 2: to be. We hope that Josh is very fruitful, and
- 20:28Speaker 2: we have multiple lombardies that we could tell our kids about. However, however,
- 20:33Speaker 2: the problem with thirteen seconds for me was that I
- 20:35Speaker 2: didn't care dt if Leslie Fraser called that dumbass defense.
- 20:38Speaker 2: It was up to him, Sean McDermott, the CEO that's
- 20:42Speaker 2: Leslie's boss, to step in and say, hey, this is
- 20:45Speaker 2: not going to work or I don't like the way
- 20:46Speaker 2: that this looks. We're gonna do you know X y Z.
- 20:49Speaker 2: And what I got met with DT on Twitter in
- 20:51Speaker 2: different spaces was that you know, well, no, Sean is
- 20:54Speaker 2: more of a he's more of a delegator, and he's
- 20:56Speaker 2: not gonna do that, and he empowers his coaches.
- 20:58Speaker 1: You know what f that? Man, I'm sorry, that was
- 21:00Speaker 1: thirteen seconds.
- 21:01Speaker 2: That's a chance to go ahead and host the AFC
- 21:03Speaker 2: Championship game at home against the Bengals the next week,
- 21:06Speaker 2: and who knows how history writes itself after that point
- 21:08Speaker 2: in time. So that's not good enough for me on Sunday.
- 21:11Speaker 2: It's not good enough that Joe well, Joe Brady's the
- 21:14Speaker 2: offensive coordinator and he would never do that and he's
- 21:16Speaker 2: not on that side of the ball. Listen, man, if
- 21:18Speaker 2: you know that something doesn't sound right, you know the
- 21:20Speaker 2: players they're getting ready to call, whether you know offense
- 21:22Speaker 2: or not, whether you're a defensive coach or not.
- 21:24Speaker 1: I just did.
- 21:25Speaker 2: I don't like when there's situations where he can step
- 21:28Speaker 2: up and be a CEO, be the I'm the boss,
- 21:31Speaker 2: I'm running this shit, and just say, you know, I
- 21:33Speaker 2: don't really let you know he hears the play call
- 21:35Speaker 2: and no, no, we don't need to be going bet
- 21:37Speaker 2: like I don't like I don't like that idea. I
- 21:39Speaker 2: don't want to pop shot to Mac Collins on second down,
- 21:41Speaker 2: you know what I mean? Or what in the case now,
- 21:43Speaker 2: To be fair, maybe Joe Brady did tell Josh to look.
- 21:46Speaker 1: Down and look for the checkdowns and he just didn't.
- 21:47Speaker 2: And we have experienced that with Josh over the years
- 21:50Speaker 2: that sometimes he just.
- 21:51Speaker 1: Doesn't take the easy stuff. So I would be fair
- 21:53Speaker 1: in that in that regard.
- 21:54Speaker 2: But you know, I just needed my coach to step
- 21:56Speaker 2: up and kind of take control of the situation. That's
- 21:59Speaker 2: I think that that's what I'm really looking forward. And
- 22:00Speaker 2: again that's why I started the episode of the way
- 22:02Speaker 2: that I did, because it reminded me of thirteen seconds.
- 22:05Speaker 2: Reminded me of the past where I've got this coach
- 22:07Speaker 2: who is supposedly in charge of everything, and then he's
- 22:10Speaker 2: going to stand up at the podium at the end
- 22:12Speaker 2: of the game and tell me that it's all on me. Well,
- 22:14Speaker 2: then if it's all on you, act like it in
- 22:16Speaker 2: the moment, And I just thought like that was just
- 22:18Speaker 2: weak in that moment because of the fact that I
- 22:20Speaker 2: don't know, man, just right, even if you run the
- 22:22Speaker 2: ball one time on first down and then decide to
- 22:24Speaker 2: take some shots or something, I don't know, just to
- 22:26Speaker 2: lose you some clock, I don't because who knows you
- 22:28Speaker 2: might break it off for six yards.
- 22:29Speaker 1: Who knows what the situation is. I just I don't know.
- 22:32Speaker 2: There's just something that doesn't sit right with me because
- 22:34Speaker 2: I've I've seen it too many times in late game
- 22:36Speaker 2: situations with this coach.
- 22:38Speaker 1: He just makes the wrong decisions.
- 22:39Speaker 3: There's a little hypocrisy with that, right because you know,
- 22:43Speaker 3: being critical damned if you do on both sides. There
- 22:46Speaker 3: being critical of Sean McDermott over the years. That tied
- 22:49Speaker 3: on article last year was that he wasn't open. You know,
- 22:54Speaker 3: he wasn't delegating. It was his way or the highway.
- 22:57Speaker 3: He was old school. It was you know, everything has
- 22:59Speaker 3: to be This is the Sean McDermott show. This is
- 23:02Speaker 3: built the culture I'm building. It goes my way, Everything
- 23:05Speaker 3: goes through me. So I you know. I I don't
- 23:09Speaker 3: think that he was like, you know, he maybe hide
- 23:12Speaker 3: behind it or whatever the case may be, to say like, oh,
- 23:15Speaker 3: I delegated it to my coordinators. It was what it was.
- 23:17Speaker 3: But that's so you I'm McDermott there. That's where I'm
- 23:21Speaker 3: having the problem with one seven. I think one seven
- 23:23Speaker 3: has to be the CEO in that situation and take
- 23:26Speaker 3: control of the game out there on the field with
- 23:28Speaker 3: whatever's calling when he has the ball in those situations.
- 23:31Speaker 3: But I definitely agree, I don't think by any means,
- 23:35Speaker 3: you know, he is a delegating type coach. It seems
- 23:38Speaker 3: like the people that he's kind of an almost too
- 23:41Speaker 3: hard ass, too much of a dick, and the fact
- 23:43Speaker 3: of it's got to go through me for it to work.
- 23:46Speaker 3: And so I don't, you.
- 23:47Speaker 1: Know, that's not here anymore. That's why not here anymore.
- 23:51Speaker 3: If escape go to blame it, like, oh, I trust
- 23:53Speaker 3: the offense. I trust what Joe Brady called, like it
- 23:55Speaker 3: paanned to Sean McDermott on the sideline, and I don't
- 23:58Speaker 3: know if he was yelling at Brady or if he
- 24:00Speaker 3: was yelling.
- 24:00Speaker 2: At so we just need to get the first down,
- 24:02Speaker 2: first down, Yeah, get the first down?
- 24:04Speaker 3: What are we doing here? So you know he knew
- 24:07Speaker 3: the game situation was it Brady was one seven? Who knows,
- 24:10Speaker 3: But I don't think it was a You can argue that,
- 24:13Speaker 3: oh he's delegating to his coordinators. I think that's bushy.
- 24:15Speaker 3: That's not true at all. He controls this this team
- 24:18Speaker 3: from top to box.
- 24:19Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, and and you know, thank you know,
- 24:21Speaker 2: and thank you for giving me a little bit of validation.
- 24:24Speaker 2: But again bringing me back to square one, because I
- 24:26Speaker 2: do think that a lot of it does lay our
- 24:28Speaker 2: feet of our quarterback, and I think that that just
- 24:29Speaker 2: makes Bills bo fieuncomfortable in general.
- 24:31Speaker 1: That's all. We love him. You know, he's on the
- 24:33Speaker 1: cover of MAT and all this other stuff. Our kids.
- 24:35Speaker 2: You know, we got buy all these jerseys for the
- 24:37Speaker 2: kids and stuff like that, and grown men were in
- 24:38Speaker 2: his jerseys. But you know, it's just a situation where
- 24:41Speaker 2: when he plays like this, it's hard to it's hard
- 24:43Speaker 2: to swallow because we expect so much more of them
- 24:45Speaker 2: and he has.
- 24:46Speaker 1: He has really raised that bar.
- 24:47Speaker 2: Now, as we transition tonight, over five hundred people DT
- 24:50Speaker 2: you see already watching on all different platforms.
- 24:53Speaker 1: We're live tonight on all platforms.
- 24:54Speaker 2: We're up on Twitter, so I hope my Twitter gang
- 24:57Speaker 2: is out there listening as well, because I argue with

- 25:33Speaker 2: As we transition, you know, you lick your wounds and
- 25:37Speaker 2: you know, you mean, you just kind of figure it
- 25:38Speaker 2: out and you're trying to come up with answers, and
- 25:40Speaker 2: that's kind of what the week works like. Then, you know,
- 25:43Speaker 2: it's funny because I'm sitting at work and then I'm
- 25:45Speaker 2: you know, on ESPN, and I'm always on the ESPN
- 25:47Speaker 2: at work and I'm checking out NFL and I refresh,
- 25:50Speaker 2: and all.
- 25:50Speaker 1: Of a sudden, I see that, you know, red breaking
- 25:52Speaker 1: news and I'm like, oh shit, they fired Salah And
- 25:55Speaker 1: I'm like, wait a minute.
- 25:56Speaker 2: I was like, his defense is like one of the
- 25:58Speaker 2: best defenses in the league. His defenses have been one
- 26:01Speaker 2: of the best defenses in the lead the entire ten
- 26:03Speaker 2: year he's been there. And I'm like, man, that dude,
- 26:06Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers is something else. Man Like, I'm like, that
- 26:08Speaker 2: dude is a cock. Like that dude is he is
- 26:11Speaker 2: something else? Doesn't talk to us. I mean, I don't
- 26:13Speaker 2: care about personal life, but it just kind of sometimes
- 26:15Speaker 2: tells you a little bit about him man, or tells
- 26:17Speaker 2: you something about his character. Doesn't talk with his family,
- 26:18Speaker 2: has a horrible relationship. I saw his brother on college
- 26:21Speaker 2: football on Saturday. I know that they don't talk at all.
- 26:23Speaker 2: That's long been documented. I know he doesn't talk to
- 26:25Speaker 2: his family or something like that. He's always going to
- 26:27Speaker 2: running through women and stuff like that. And I'm like, man,
- 26:29Speaker 2: this dude is shady as hell. And it was funny
- 26:32Speaker 2: because the Jets, now I don't really know what to think.
- 26:36Speaker 2: Todd Downing gets promoted to play caller yesterday, so he
- 26:40Speaker 2: had some ineffective offenses in Tennessee. So I don't know
- 26:42Speaker 2: really what that's gonna do, but I know Aaron Rodgers
- 26:44Speaker 2: wasn't gonna let Nathaniel Hackett get fired because that's his boy,
- 26:47Speaker 2: and like he's running shit over there. At one Jets drive,
- 26:51Speaker 2: DT talked to me about the coaches bump, because I
- 26:54Speaker 2: know that it's a real thing, and I know a
- 26:56Speaker 2: lot of times when coaches get fired, the players play
- 26:57Speaker 2: more inspired and stuff like that. Now, I think he
- 27:00Speaker 2: turns out that they played it and it was like
- 27:01Speaker 2: sixteen and thirteen or something, so it's like right around
- 27:04Speaker 2: five hundred for a win immediately after your coach is fired.
- 27:07Speaker 2: But I do think that they'll play inspired football on
- 27:09Speaker 2: Monday Night. It's just interesting because it seems like this
- 27:12Speaker 2: is a team in turmoil right now. Everyone they don't
- 27:14Speaker 2: know which way is up, and I just I cannot
- 27:17Speaker 2: I am having a hard time, you know, envisioning the
- 27:19Speaker 2: fact that the Bills could lose and I and I
- 27:20Speaker 2: know we'll get to the injuries and here in a moment,
- 27:22Speaker 2: but man, I just can't picture us going to the
- 27:25Speaker 2: Medal Lands with this team all in a cluster, you
- 27:27Speaker 2: know what, and losing.
- 27:29Speaker 1: I just I just don't see it. Man. I'm sorry, man,
- 27:31Speaker 1: this team is they're reeling right now for sure, all right.
- 27:34Speaker 3: P Robert Salad, I mean that was that was.
- 27:38Speaker 2: James coming out on McAfee.
- 27:41Speaker 3: Going, you know, it's not just the it's not just
- 27:43Speaker 3: the business. This man's got a family and they talking.
- 27:45Speaker 1: About the seven kids. Said his son, yeah, said his
- 27:50Speaker 1: son was growing.
- 27:51Speaker 3: You know, this dude never had a quarterback and defense
- 27:55Speaker 3: was always top tier. He never had a quarterback until
- 27:58Speaker 3: this year. And they're you know, they're two and three, okay, uh,
- 28:01Speaker 3: but they're one game if they beat the Bills on Monday,
- 28:04Speaker 3: they're leading the AFC East, you know, with the schedule
- 28:08Speaker 3: ahead of them. So this wasn't a this wasn't a
- 28:10Speaker 3: mid mid season decision. What's the Jets owner? What he uh?
- 28:16Speaker 3: What's his name? What? You didn't even play in the
- 28:21Speaker 3: middle of the season. You didn't even Adam Gase in
- 28:24Speaker 3: the middle of the season. That was one of the
- 28:26Speaker 3: worst teams of all time there, you know with that
- 28:28Speaker 3: so uh, Aaron Rodgers got his handprints all over this.
- 28:31Speaker 3: I love him feeding into that villain. Uh, you know,
- 28:33Speaker 3: persona and saying he's not and then wondering why everybody
- 28:37Speaker 3: talks about him. But the reality of it is, you know, yeah,
- 28:41Speaker 3: the bump whatever, I'm I'm.
- 28:43Speaker 1: Like sixteen and thirteen.
- 28:45Speaker 3: Yeah. Last year, the Bills went and played the Chargers
- 28:48Speaker 3: the game after they fired their coach. Right, it was
- 28:50Speaker 3: a tough.
- 28:50Speaker 1: Game, but we had to do everything with that game.
- 28:52Speaker 3: And I don't know if it was from the coaches
- 28:54Speaker 3: bump or whatever the BS is, but Vegas gets uh,
- 28:58Speaker 3: Antonio Pierce and they like they the brakes off somebody. Uh, well,
- 29:02Speaker 3: I think it was the Chargers to get their coach.
- 29:04Speaker 2: Yeah, they had like seventy points or whatever it was,
- 29:06Speaker 2: or sixty points, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 29:07Speaker 3: And then that got their coach fired. Then the Bills
- 29:09Speaker 3: played the Chargers and barely snuck through. So I'm not
- 29:12Speaker 3: buinding any of that hype. It's the NFL, it's the
- 29:14Speaker 3: big leagues. This is for first place in the division.
- 29:16Speaker 3: So screw screw a coach bump. If we're if we're
- 29:20Speaker 3: moving to second the division. For a coach bump where
- 29:22Speaker 3: we're not, we don't deserve to be at first, you know,
- 29:24Speaker 3: screw that, right, So the I I didn't think Robert
- 29:28Speaker 3: Salad was great, but I don't think he's to be
- 29:31Speaker 3: fired in this it is. Yeah, the fact of it
- 29:35Speaker 3: is the Jets defense is good. They always will be,
- 29:38Speaker 3: you know, with this corps in there. Aaron Rodgers is
- 29:40Speaker 3: is old. Man is old. He's he's showing it. He
- 29:44Speaker 3: can still make throws. Uh. But London, you know, was
- 29:47Speaker 3: a was a tough look for him. He got beat up,
- 29:49Speaker 3: he got bruised brown, and he's not gonna be able
- 29:52Speaker 3: to be as mobile as he needs to be, I
- 29:53Speaker 3: think to beat this team. So I agree, screw this
- 29:56Speaker 3: coach bump. And if you're the Buffalo Bills, you can't
- 29:59Speaker 3: look at anything like that. This is a division game.
- 30:01Speaker 3: That is I hate saying must win this early in
- 30:04Speaker 3: the season, but.
- 30:05Speaker 1: I know that's what it was.
- 30:06Speaker 3: And it raised these last two weeks, you know, and
- 30:09Speaker 3: move forward and put this coach bump thing to rest.
- 30:11Speaker 3: That's bullshit.
- 30:13Speaker 1: I like it.
- 30:13Speaker 2: It's funny because no, I mean, I don't think that
- 30:15Speaker 2: he was a great coach or anything like that, but
- 30:17Speaker 2: I do think that, you know, it was just he
- 30:19Speaker 2: just didn't get a fair shake in respects to the
- 30:20Speaker 2: fact that he didn't get have you know, a quarterback.
- 30:23Speaker 2: But you know, if you have the record that he had,
- 30:24Speaker 2: then obviously it's never going to be a situation where
- 30:26Speaker 2: you should feel too confident in your job security for sure.
- 30:29Speaker 1: Twenty and thirty two whatever he was now, you.
- 30:32Speaker 2: Know, as we transition when respects to these injuries DT,
- 30:35Speaker 2: you know, it's it's concerning, to be completely honest, it
- 30:38Speaker 2: is concerning, and I think it's more concerning, Like what
- 30:40Speaker 2: I talked about earlier in the show of DT is
- 30:42Speaker 2: that it seems like Khalil Shakir means a ship ton
- 30:45Speaker 2: to this offense. And if that's the case, I don't
- 30:48Speaker 2: even know if he's going to be out there. I
- 30:49Speaker 2: don't know if he's going to you know, I don't
- 30:52Speaker 2: even know if he's going to be healthy. What happened
- 30:54Speaker 2: in the Baltimore game when he tried to come back
- 30:56Speaker 2: is that you know.
- 30:57Speaker 1: He he didn't really look that great, you know what
- 30:59Speaker 1: I mean, and in a.
- 31:00Speaker 2: Situation where he was logging around and trying to gut
- 31:02Speaker 2: through it. But other than that long touchdown, which was
- 31:04Speaker 2: a broken play to Shakir, it really didn't work out
- 31:07Speaker 2: that way that well for him, you know, in that
- 31:09Speaker 2: spot duty. So he's been banged up. We felt we
- 31:11Speaker 2: felt it last week on the offensive side of the football.
- 31:13Speaker 1: DT.
- 31:14Speaker 2: I don't know what to think of this in respects
- 31:17Speaker 2: to this, but you look down this injury report, we'll
- 31:19Speaker 2: take We'll go with the positives first.
- 31:21Speaker 1: The positive is that.
- 31:22Speaker 2: You know Josh Allen, officially, the NFL PA in the
- 31:25Speaker 2: NFL come out with a joint statement which does not
- 31:28Speaker 2: scream cover up at all, does not, I mean, And
- 31:30Speaker 2: that's fine. I'm I know I'm being a cynic into
- 31:32Speaker 2: the case may be, but I like literally argued with
- 31:34Speaker 2: so many people on Twitter would tell me he hurt
- 31:36Speaker 2: his chest or he heard his acre, and I'm like,
- 31:38Speaker 2: they don't give uf smelling saaltce for fucking hurting your ankle,
- 31:40Speaker 2: Like I don't know what else to tell you. Guys
- 31:42Speaker 2: like his head bounced like a basketball, like okay, and
- 31:44Speaker 2: then everybody's reminding everybody.
- 31:45Speaker 1: That they're not doctor.
- 31:46Speaker 2: So I get it, no problem, Josh Allen is officially healthy.
- 31:49Speaker 2: So take that for whatever you want to take it.
- 31:51Speaker 1: Tomorrow.
- 31:51Speaker 2: Bernard came back last week, played great, obviously, had that
- 31:54Speaker 2: interception as you as you called.
- 31:56Speaker 1: Uh luck. I thought it was a little bit of
- 31:57Speaker 1: luck plus some it's a really good, a great player.
- 32:00Speaker 3: Yes, but you know, if that plays nine out of
- 32:03Speaker 3: ten times, he's probably you know, probably not making that pick.
- 32:05Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely, Okay, we'll go with that now. Dade Jones,
- 32:08Speaker 2: our boy friend Penn state he'll be back this week.
- 32:10Speaker 2: It looks like he was a full participant once again.
- 32:12Speaker 2: And then Javon Solomon, which will need on that edge.
- 32:15Speaker 2: He's gonna be in there. Obviously at Oliver excuse me,
- 32:17Speaker 2: obviously von Miller is still suspended, so we need Javon
- 32:21Speaker 2: Solomon to be back out there. And then it's just unfortunate.
- 32:25Speaker 2: Dt looks like at Oliver's gonna miss. He hasn't practiced
- 32:28Speaker 2: all week. James Cook's gonna miss. He hasn't practiced all week,
- 32:30Speaker 2: it looks like. And it's a situation where Shakir hasn't
- 32:34Speaker 2: practiced all week. So you know, we have some positives
- 32:37Speaker 2: where we're getting a little bit healthier, but not everybody.
- 32:39Speaker 2: And it seems like if Shakier is gonna mean this
- 32:41Speaker 2: much to the offense, then my question is, what are
- 32:44Speaker 2: the answers for the best defense in the league, Number
- 32:46Speaker 2: one against the past?
- 32:47Speaker 1: How are you going to stop them? On on Monday?
- 32:50Speaker 2: Night because they're gonna I mean, the blueprints out now
- 32:53Speaker 2: on on the bills, the blueprints out. That's why I
- 32:55Speaker 2: want DeVonta Adams And I know we'll talk about trades
- 32:58Speaker 2: to end the show, but the blueprints out. Press them up,
- 33:01Speaker 2: get up on these guys, bump them, get in their faces,
- 33:03Speaker 2: play man coverage and and go ahead and forget this
- 33:06Speaker 2: too high safety show. We'll play one high and and
- 33:08Speaker 2: forcenate to beat us, we'll play you. We'll force you
- 33:10Speaker 2: to beat us on the outside.
- 33:11Speaker 1: Period.
- 33:12Speaker 2: And I don't know if they can, if they're capable,
- 33:14Speaker 2: and that's the only reason why I think they could
- 33:16Speaker 2: possibly lose this game.
- 33:17Speaker 1: I don't know if the receivers are capable.
- 33:18Speaker 3: Well, it's like the Fountain of Youth. You you got
- 33:21Speaker 3: to sacrifice something to get something out of it, right,
- 33:24Speaker 3: And we're getting our defensive side of the ball back
- 33:26Speaker 3: out of injury. But now our offense is sacrificing and
- 33:29Speaker 3: going in and that's what's looked like is needed the
- 33:31Speaker 3: most help.
- 33:32Speaker 1: You know.
- 33:32Speaker 3: So it's kind of trending in the wrong direction when
- 33:34Speaker 3: it comes to that. But Nicol City Crew Mafia, let's
- 33:38Speaker 3: let's let's breathe for a second. Remember we got a
- 33:40Speaker 3: Monday night game. Okay, so we're a day we're day late,
- 33:43Speaker 3: we're daylight on everything. This is a Friday. The Friday
- 33:47Speaker 3: practice is tomorrow, okay, So you know, I'm not if
- 33:51Speaker 3: you if you're a fancy football player and you're looking
- 33:53Speaker 3: around who's playing, who's not playing? A Friday practice means
- 33:56Speaker 3: a lot for the game. Right if we get a
- 33:59Speaker 3: limited or you know, something going on in Friday practice,
- 34:02Speaker 3: you got a lot more enthusiasm and optimism for playing
- 34:05Speaker 3: on Sunday. Friday practice is tomorrow on Saturday. Okay, So
- 34:09Speaker 3: we're gonna if if this is still the same tomorrow,
- 34:12Speaker 3: then okay, then I'm gonna start being worried about James Cook.
- 34:14Speaker 3: I'm gonna start being worried about Khalilshakir at Albert kind
- 34:17Speaker 3: of seems like he might not be there. But Khalilshakir
- 34:21Speaker 3: the beginning of the week, McDermot said he was progressing decently.
- 34:25Speaker 3: This might be something where we're just gonna keep you
- 34:27Speaker 3: off it as much as possible, and you know, so
- 34:30Speaker 3: you you will be ready to go on Monday night.
- 34:34Speaker 3: So I'm I'm gonna wait till tomorrow I'm gonna wait
- 34:36Speaker 3: till Saturday, see this injury report and then make make
- 34:39Speaker 3: my kind of concerns from there. James Cook being out
- 34:42Speaker 3: is you know without glo, sar, James Cook is literally
- 34:45Speaker 3: our only offensive.
- 34:46Speaker 2: We Yeah, you know, so that's uh, that's a tough
- 34:49Speaker 2: thing to see, just so young, you know.
- 34:53Speaker 3: But you know, in in in this date, something to
- 34:57Speaker 3: go to. I mean, you ran the ball twenty times
- 34:59Speaker 3: on Sunday. I think Ray Davis could be good. I
- 35:04Speaker 3: think Ty Johnson has answered the bell when he's been
- 35:07Speaker 3: called upon with it this year, you know, receiving and rushing.
- 35:11Speaker 1: Uh.
- 35:11Speaker 3: So it's not end of the world. I don't think
- 35:13Speaker 3: if James Cook's not in there, but it is discouraging.
- 35:16Speaker 3: I am confident will be in. I really Trail Bernard
- 35:20Speaker 3: was a huge comeback last week being on the field.
- 35:22Speaker 3: We wouldn't have been in that game without him.
- 35:24Speaker 2: And Terry Johns looking good. Yeah, Terreon Johnson's looking good
- 35:29Speaker 2: this week. You're gonna be huge to get back.
- 35:34Speaker 1: Yeah. No, you know, I'm not.
- 35:36Speaker 3: I'm not worried till tomorrow.
- 35:39Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean we'll see, I mean, it'll be interesting.
- 35:41Speaker 2: Taron Johnson is definitely gonna be a big boost between
- 35:44Speaker 2: him and Bernard. That'll be obviously great to have the
- 35:47Speaker 2: two of them back together when obviously Dorian Williams is
- 35:49Speaker 2: running around with his hair on fire. You know, it'll
- 35:52Speaker 2: be interesting to see because you know, I just the
- 35:56Speaker 2: injuries just never stopped. And you know, I had talked
- 35:58Speaker 2: about it before, like when are we gonna be whole?
- 35:59Speaker 2: And I'm sick of the excuses and all this different
- 36:02Speaker 2: type of stuff. So like, I'm just trying to make
- 36:03Speaker 2: sure that we can never find a way to have
- 36:05Speaker 2: our whole team to I understand it's the NFL.
- 36:07Speaker 1: I understand that that's not realistic.
- 36:08Speaker 2: Everybody's dealing with injuries, but it just sucks where it
- 36:11Speaker 2: always just seems to be something going on and I
- 36:13Speaker 2: just want to see the offense and the defense hole
- 36:16Speaker 2: and it just seems like we can't get there.
- 36:18Speaker 1: So we'll see Ed.
- 36:18Speaker 2: Oliver will probably be out this week though, and then hopefully,
- 36:21Speaker 2: like you said, we can get Taron Johnson back.
- 36:22Speaker 1: That'll be uh, that'll be a big deal if we can.
- 36:24Speaker 2: Now as we transition DT, you know, when you look
- 36:27Speaker 2: at this matchup, I had already spoke about it, but
- 36:30Speaker 2: you know, the defense is so good for them that
- 36:34Speaker 2: I think that it can cause problems. I'm wondering who
- 36:36Speaker 2: you think would be the person to step up. I
- 36:38Speaker 2: know that you said that James Cook if he's out,
- 36:40Speaker 2: let's assume that. Let's assume that James Cook is out.
- 36:43Speaker 2: We'll assume that Khalil Secure plays. Am I just going
- 36:46Speaker 2: to be proven you know wrong, that that Shakir is
- 36:49Speaker 2: the He is the cog. He is the proverbial straw
- 36:52Speaker 2: that makes this entire offense. I mean, two weeks we
- 36:56Speaker 2: look like shit. He comes back and it just it's
- 36:58Speaker 2: like a light switch, it just flips back on. If
- 36:59Speaker 2: it does that, great And I'll be the first person
- 37:01Speaker 2: to cheer this out song every touchdown we get. I
- 37:04Speaker 2: just I think it's a tall task. And I think
- 37:07Speaker 2: that everybody keeps talking about Shakir and not that he's
- 37:10Speaker 2: not a great player or a good player, good the
- 37:11Speaker 2: great player. My thing is that one player shouldn't make
- 37:14Speaker 2: that much of a difference in respects to the offensive
- 37:17Speaker 2: efficiency when supposedly it's everyone. Everybody eats, and it just
- 37:22Speaker 2: I don't know, man, It's just something just doesn't add up.
- 37:24Speaker 2: Where has Curtis Samuel still like I still haven't like,
- 37:27Speaker 2: what what are we doing?
- 37:29Speaker 3: Well, well, you said it. I mean the if he
- 37:32Speaker 3: comes back and it is a light switch flipped, it'll
- 37:35Speaker 3: be great. We'll take the dub whatever, but not long jevity.
- 37:38Speaker 3: It's not longevity. That's not the true answer. It's not
- 37:41Speaker 3: Koliol Shakir. Being inner out of the lineup is the
- 37:43Speaker 3: detriment of if we win or lose a game. It
- 37:45Speaker 3: can't be and I don't believe it will be. But
- 37:47Speaker 3: if he comes back, it's obviously going to help us.
- 37:50Speaker 3: You said it right there. The two major things Curtis Samuel,
- 37:53Speaker 3: Dalton k K where you know, if everybody eats, these
- 37:57Speaker 3: dudes have to start getting going. Curtis sam if he's hurt,
- 38:00Speaker 3: then get him out of there.
- 38:02Speaker 1: I don't want him.
- 38:02Speaker 3: I don't want him in the in the game catching
- 38:04Speaker 3: one yard screen passes for six targets for no game.
- 38:10Speaker 1: For the first time the lineup.
- 38:11Speaker 3: We don't need to pretend he's not hurt and do
- 38:14Speaker 3: this bullshit with him.
- 38:15Speaker 1: Everybody.
- 38:15Speaker 3: That's starting to really piss me off, Like you look
- 38:18Speaker 3: at you look at all these Curtis Samuel highlights in Carolina,
- 38:21Speaker 3: in Washington, he's catching bombs down the middle of the field,
- 38:26Speaker 3: get him past five yards for us. So if he's hurt,
- 38:29Speaker 3: get him off the field. And if he's not hurt,
- 38:31Speaker 3: let's stop doing what or doing with him? Dalton Kaid
- 38:33Speaker 3: gotta be better, got it?
- 38:35Speaker 1: You know?
- 38:35Speaker 3: I get that teams are keen on him whatnot. But
- 38:38Speaker 3: if you're gonna be you know, Dalton Kinkaid is a receiver.
- 38:41Speaker 3: James Cooks a receiver.
- 38:42Speaker 1: Nothing like nightmare, matchupmare. Yeah, I don't know.
- 38:48Speaker 3: We talk about layups all the time, giving people layups.
- 38:50Speaker 3: And I said it earlier in the show. If one
- 38:53Speaker 3: seven and gets unstoppable, it's because he has tempo and
- 38:56Speaker 3: and he's in a rhythm. And what what a better
- 38:59Speaker 3: way getting a rhythm then hitting your tight end over
- 39:01Speaker 3: and over the middle for fifteen yards of pop? Right,
- 39:04Speaker 3: So it's kin kid, it's Samuel. I need, we need.
- 39:07Speaker 3: I would like Secur to come back. I think Kean
- 39:09Speaker 3: Coleman is breaking into himself. He will start being more
- 39:12Speaker 3: and more of a weapon as things go by, and
- 39:14Speaker 3: he's as years go by, to be honest, but curtis Samuel,
- 39:17Speaker 3: if he's hurt, get him out, let's see, let's see shavers,
- 39:21Speaker 3: let's see kJ Hammler, let's see somebody not if he's
- 39:25Speaker 3: hurt or start, and then we need Kinkaid to start
- 39:27Speaker 3: giving one to seven layoffs to get in a temple.
- 39:29Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think that I think you're absolutely right,
- 39:32Speaker 2: and I think just a lot. I think a lot
- 39:35Speaker 2: falls on Joe Brady's plate. And again he doesn't pull
- 39:38Speaker 2: the trigger. So I am I am keeping that in
- 39:40Speaker 2: the back of my mind, that he doesn't pull the
- 39:41Speaker 2: trigger itself. But I do need you know, whatever, whatever
- 39:46Speaker 2: he's got cooked up, whatever he's got for answers.
- 39:49Speaker 1: I need all your answers right now.
- 39:50Speaker 2: This is for the division in respects for an early
- 39:52Speaker 2: season game matchup on the road against Arrival, that they
- 39:55Speaker 2: think that they could be just as good as you.
- 39:57Speaker 2: The record says that they are just as good as you,
- 39:59Speaker 2: damn near. So I think I need you know whatever
- 40:01Speaker 2: you've got. If you got any tricks in your bag,
- 40:02Speaker 2: pull them out. Not trick plays because we know that
- 40:04Speaker 2: you suck at those, but tricks. You got any tricks
- 40:06Speaker 2: in your bag, I need you to pull them out
- 40:08Speaker 2: because you know the way that they're using Samuel is
- 40:11Speaker 2: unacceptable quite honestly to me. Before the highest paper receiver
- 40:13Speaker 2: on the team. I understand eight million dollars is not
- 40:15Speaker 2: a lot of money. I get it, but it's unacceptable
- 40:18Speaker 2: the way that they're using him.
- 40:19Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I know. It's just funny how they're using him.
- 40:23Speaker 2: And like you just talked about the Carolina An, any
- 40:25Speaker 2: highlights you see, even from Washington Day's, this is not
- 40:28Speaker 2: how he was used. I understand that he can run
- 40:30Speaker 2: the ball. He's a former running back Ohio State UTU.
- 40:32Speaker 1: I know all that shit.
- 40:34Speaker 2: I know my college football as well, but man, this
- 40:36Speaker 2: is not the NFL version of Curtis Samuel that we've
- 40:38Speaker 2: seen at all. And it's almost like there's a mandate
- 40:41Speaker 2: not to throw him anything but bubble screens, and now
- 40:44Speaker 2: everybody is king on them. Houston saw them coming a
- 40:46Speaker 2: mile away. They weren't doing shit with them. He catches
- 40:48Speaker 2: one ball for negative yards or whatever it was, and
- 40:50Speaker 2: all those targets, it was just a it's been horrible.
- 40:52Speaker 2: It's been a little bit almost criminal what they've been
- 40:54Speaker 2: doing to him. So I need Joe Brady to get
- 40:57Speaker 2: his shit together as well now as we transition and
- 41:00Speaker 2: DT before we begin to wrap up tonight and get
- 41:02Speaker 2: them Tailgate report. You know, I know that the buzz
- 41:06Speaker 2: that I in the circles that I roll with. I
- 41:08Speaker 2: don't know about your text groups, but in the circles
- 41:10Speaker 2: that I roll with, especially on Twitter, shout out to
- 41:13Speaker 2: my Twitter crew out there. They do like a little
- 41:16Speaker 2: space like this, but it's all audio, so they can
- 41:18Speaker 2: you can hop in and and just kind of speak,
- 41:21Speaker 2: speak your mind and stuff like that. And boy, DT,
- 41:23Speaker 2: the Bills Maffi in there, the guys that I roll
- 41:25Speaker 2: with in there were unanimous with me that Brandon Bean
- 41:30Speaker 2: has to do something.
- 41:31Speaker 1: And that's the.
- 41:32Speaker 2: Reason that I named the episode that the way that
- 41:34Speaker 2: I did DT, and you always know that there's a
- 41:35Speaker 2: meeting behind the reasons why I named these episodes. But
- 41:38Speaker 2: in my mind, DT, and I told all of them
- 41:40Speaker 2: in that space that do not hold your breath because
- 41:44Speaker 2: of the fact that Brandon Bean, I feel like, tried
- 41:46Speaker 2: to tell us. Sean McDermott, to a certain lesser extent,
- 41:49Speaker 2: tried to tell us when they traded Stefan Diggs, what
- 41:53Speaker 2: was your first reaction, DT, Don't worry, I'll tell you
- 41:56Speaker 2: for yourself. You said, Brandon Bean's got something up his sleeve,
- 42:00Speaker 2: and I said, okay, he better then nothing. Happened in
- 42:03Speaker 2: a DT or no straight replacement for fourteen. So in
- 42:08Speaker 2: my mind, I told everybody to not hold their breath
- 42:11Speaker 2: because the reason being is that Brandon b wanted to
- 42:14Speaker 2: reset this cap. That's why it takes on sixty one
- 42:17Speaker 2: million dollars, thirty one of which was four fourteen, just
- 42:19Speaker 2: to get him out of the building. We're not going
- 42:21Speaker 2: to rehash all that type of stuff. We're done with
- 42:22Speaker 2: that now. However, because of the fact that he chose
- 42:26Speaker 2: to do that this year, I think DT.
- 42:28Speaker 1: This is my opinion, and I'm firming it.
- 42:30Speaker 2: I believe now at this point in time that he
- 42:32Speaker 2: just wants to ride it out because of the fact
- 42:34Speaker 2: that he's already made that decision. And you know what,
- 42:37Speaker 2: this is what I said I was gonna do, and
- 42:38Speaker 2: I'm just gonna do it. And we got to swallow
- 42:40Speaker 2: this medicine right now because it's going to be for
- 42:41Speaker 2: the greater good of the future Buffalo Bills. My main problem,
- 42:46Speaker 2: my number one problem with that whole theory from the
- 42:49Speaker 2: beginning from trading fourteen to not replacing him, is that
- 42:52Speaker 2: I don't want to waste Josh Allen's prime years. I
- 42:55Speaker 2: said it in the off season you've said it before.
- 42:57Speaker 2: I don't think that these are the type of years
- 42:59Speaker 2: that we should be wasting because of the fact that
- 43:01Speaker 2: we don't know when we're going to get back again.
- 43:03Speaker 1: I raise my hand.
- 43:05Speaker 2: I am dealing in a sense from a sense of fear,
- 43:07Speaker 2: because again, thirteen seconds is in the back of my mind,
- 43:10Speaker 2: and I constantly daily think about when I think about
- 43:12Speaker 2: the Bills, that that could have been our best chance.
- 43:15Speaker 2: That's my personal Halloween nightmare is that eight thirteen seconds
- 43:19Speaker 2: was our best chance. So throwing away one of his
- 43:21Speaker 2: prime years is not on the cards for me. It's
- 43:23Speaker 2: not on the menu for me. I don't agree with
- 43:25Speaker 2: it at all.
- 43:26Speaker 1: DT.
- 43:27Speaker 2: These guys were going crazy saying trade for Adams or
- 43:31Speaker 2: trade for Cooper, trade somebody said fucking trade for both,
- 43:34Speaker 2: which obviously would never have it. Trade for somebody or
- 43:36Speaker 2: an established receiver, or they're done with the season because
- 43:40Speaker 2: Brandon Bean is obviously saying that he doesn't care and
- 43:43Speaker 2: he's ready to punt on the year. I told them
- 43:45Speaker 2: not hold their breath. I would love DeVonta Adams of
- 43:47Speaker 2: being a Bill's uniform.
- 43:48Speaker 1: DT.
- 43:48Speaker 2: I am not holding my breath, and as one of
- 43:51Speaker 2: my best friends, I refuse to let you hold your
- 43:54Speaker 2: fucking breath either, don't hold your breath? Et what do
- 43:56Speaker 2: you think about what do you think about the bills
- 43:57Speaker 2: that Brandon bean? Right now, all.
- 44:00Speaker 3: Champions are judged not how they how they hit, how
- 44:03Speaker 3: they how they react when they get hit, and how
- 44:06Speaker 3: they get back up. Right, So in this case, yes,
- 44:10Speaker 3: I was wrong in the fact that he had the
- 44:12Speaker 3: ace ofist sleeve and he was just gonna be rolling
- 44:15Speaker 3: with this. You were, You were correct in that in
- 44:16Speaker 3: that regard, But if you're making decision to roll with this,
- 44:21Speaker 3: then that has to be brought into the team in
- 44:23Speaker 3: a phase, right like, Okay, we are rolling with this,
- 44:26Speaker 3: Let's see how it works. The past two weeks. It
- 44:29Speaker 3: hasn't worked. So now we need a game plan and
- 44:31Speaker 3: work in personnel or whatever we have to do to
- 44:34Speaker 3: make what we have work. You know, you can't just
- 44:36Speaker 3: keep doing the same thing over and over again expecting
- 44:39Speaker 3: a different result. If this is what they're rolling with,
- 44:41Speaker 3: we need to change up the game plan to make
- 44:43Speaker 3: this as successful as it can be. It wasn't. We
- 44:46Speaker 3: didn't know it wasn't gonna work until these last two games. True, Okay,
- 44:49Speaker 3: now we do. Let's see if we can change up
- 44:51Speaker 3: the game. Pan, Let's see if we get some different
- 44:53Speaker 3: personnel in there, if kJ Hammler and Shavers get get
- 44:56Speaker 3: their shot, and then if if we start seeing that,
- 45:00Speaker 3: then I think, okay, then this team is looking for
- 45:02Speaker 3: something else. And then the probability of a trade is
- 45:06Speaker 3: a lot more, could could be more, you know, available
- 45:11Speaker 3: than you want.
- 45:12Speaker 1: Them to exhaust all effort. You want them to exhaust
- 45:14Speaker 1: all efforts.
- 45:15Speaker 3: There's things with that. One, the plan was to reset
- 45:19Speaker 3: the cap, so bringing somebody in is gonna negate that.
- 45:22Speaker 3: And two the pride of we let Stephan Diggs walk
- 45:26Speaker 3: and then we just go get another Stephan Diggs after
- 45:29Speaker 3: a couple of weeks, you know, So like I don't
- 45:31Speaker 3: I think that's the last thing. That's what w g
- 45:34Speaker 3: I was saying, the thing and McDermott want to do.
- 45:38Speaker 2: But why how can you let your pride get in
- 45:41Speaker 2: the way of seventeen's prime years?
- 45:45Speaker 1: That's the only thing I now I understand that point.
- 45:47Speaker 2: And I've heard it on w g R this week
- 45:49Speaker 2: that that that that that's just too much of a pivot,
- 45:51Speaker 2: that they're not going to want to pivot after they
- 45:53Speaker 2: just tried to sell everybody eats all summer. I understand
- 45:56Speaker 2: the premise of the point. My thing is that how
- 45:58Speaker 2: could you turn your back on seventeen this? This is bullsit.
- 46:04Speaker 3: So if you are going to follow the pride, I
- 46:06Speaker 3: don't want to see it in the fact of I'm
- 46:07Speaker 3: not just trading for Devanta Adams. I want to see
- 46:10Speaker 3: it in the fact of game planning different, getting different
- 46:12Speaker 3: personnel in there, seeing different guys, seeing different looks. Okay,
- 46:16Speaker 3: what can we make this work with? And that's what
- 46:19Speaker 3: I think that you know, if you are gonna stick
- 46:21Speaker 3: with this, then it has to be on that side
- 46:23Speaker 3: of things, and I will be if it works. Obviously
- 46:25Speaker 3: I'm with it, but I would be a lot more
- 46:27Speaker 3: respectful of it if they start changing game plans up
- 46:30Speaker 3: to see, this is what we got, so we need
- 46:31Speaker 3: to find a way to make what we have work.
- 46:34Speaker 3: I mean, I'm taking DeVante Adams rob Okay, I just
- 46:38Speaker 3: don't think they're gonna do it. I don't think.
- 46:40Speaker 1: I don't think I don't, but.
- 46:42Speaker 3: But I do need if they don't do it, I
- 46:44Speaker 3: do need to see them changing things up in that
- 46:46Speaker 3: in that regard of changing the game plan, changing things around,
- 46:49Speaker 3: getting different looks, to get one seven in a rhythm,
- 46:51Speaker 3: to get going, because you know it's it's then it
- 46:55Speaker 3: becomes completely unacceptable. You're wasting a year, you're doing all
- 46:58Speaker 3: that bullshit whatever you want to get into. But I
- 47:00Speaker 3: think they're gonna You're gonna see a difference in the
- 47:03Speaker 3: team before you see the trade, like a difference in
- 47:06Speaker 3: the way they play right now before you see the trade.
- 47:09Speaker 2: So that's what I'm saying, that you want them to
- 47:10Speaker 2: exhaust all efforts, or you expect them to try to
- 47:12Speaker 2: exhaust all the others. I think they move them to
- 47:14Speaker 2: exhaust all efforts. They moved the trade deadline back, so
- 47:16Speaker 2: I think it's like right around Halloween.
- 47:18Speaker 3: So you know, but if we're talking specifically DeVante Adams,
- 47:21Speaker 3: it doesn't sound like we got to Halloween. Sounds like
- 47:24Speaker 3: this ship's going down soon.
- 47:25Speaker 1: Soon, Yeah, somebody.
- 47:26Speaker 2: I think one of his former teammates set on k
- 47:29Speaker 2: Adams show, like he said of weeks not days.
- 47:32Speaker 1: Uh, I don't know that.
- 47:34Speaker 3: In that case, get them, get them here tonight so
- 47:36Speaker 3: we can play Monday.
- 47:38Speaker 2: Well that could have been on too, And that's what
- 47:39Speaker 2: the guys in the States are saying up to it,
- 47:41Speaker 2: like they wanted they want to bring the bean on
- 47:43Speaker 2: the phone, you know, Monday, first thing Monday, and you know,
- 47:45Speaker 2: and we don't know if he wasn't on the phone.
- 47:46Speaker 2: So I'll be fair in that in that regard the
- 47:49Speaker 2: thing that I just wanted to warn them. And I guess,
- 47:51Speaker 2: you know, I don't have to warn you because you
- 47:52Speaker 2: don't expect I just don't.
- 47:53Speaker 1: I just don't see it.
- 47:55Speaker 2: And and and I don't think I don't agree with
- 47:57Speaker 2: the pride thing, but I do think that that could
- 47:58Speaker 2: be a big part of it, not only not just
- 48:00Speaker 2: necessarily pride, but also just like just like this is
- 48:04Speaker 2: our fucking plan and we're gonna you know what I mean,
- 48:06Speaker 2: Like this is on Joe Brady to figure out, if
- 48:07Speaker 2: this is on Josh Allen to figure out, like we said,
- 48:09Speaker 2: we're gonna do this. We got him, you know, quote
- 48:12Speaker 2: unquote weapons, We got him a whole bunch of you know,
- 48:14Speaker 2: Swiss army knife guys. What are the case may be
- 48:15Speaker 2: or guys that could do different things. Let's let's figure
- 48:17Speaker 2: this out. If we got to put Kean Coleman in
- 48:19Speaker 2: the slot, put him in the slot. Everybody coming out
- 48:21Speaker 2: of the draft set that he was better fit out
- 48:22Speaker 2: of the slot. I heard Steve Steve Smith make a
- 48:26Speaker 2: great point I reposted on Twitter this week about how
- 48:28Speaker 2: he really needs to be in the slot to go
- 48:29Speaker 2: up against slower linebackers and smaller DB's and that could
- 48:33Speaker 2: really unlock him. So fine, do whatever, stop you know,
- 48:35Speaker 2: throwing bubble routes to Curtis Sammy, whatever you got to do,
- 48:38Speaker 2: figure it out, Figure it out. My thing is that
- 48:40Speaker 2: I just don't think that the Bills, necessarily and Brandon
- 48:43Speaker 2: Bean want to admit that this ship didn't work so quickly,
- 48:47Speaker 2: And I think that that would be a sign that
- 48:48Speaker 2: they know that it didn't work so quickly. I personally,
- 48:51Speaker 2: as a fan, who all I care about is a
- 48:53Speaker 2: Lombardi one, just one for me and my kids.
- 48:56Speaker 1: All I care about is a Lombardi.
- 48:57Speaker 2: So I don't care about your pride, and I definitely
- 48:59Speaker 2: don't want to shove one of Josh Allen's prime years
- 49:02Speaker 2: into a volcano. And that seems like how it's going
- 49:04Speaker 2: right now. Again, we don't know the rest of the season.
- 49:07Speaker 2: DT is absolutely right. I get on the couch. He
- 49:10Speaker 2: talks me off the ledge almost every week every season,
- 49:13Speaker 2: So yes, there's plenty of fucking football left.
- 49:15Speaker 1: DT.
- 49:15Speaker 2: I know, I paid the lady at the front desk.
- 49:18Speaker 2: I just damn man like one of his prime years.
- 49:22Speaker 2: It's just, this is not the time for experimentation.
- 49:24Speaker 1: Ship.
- 49:24Speaker 2: If you had to get fourteen out of the building
- 49:26Speaker 2: for whatever reason, for the maturity of Josh, for the
- 49:29Speaker 2: for the betterment of the locker room, whatever reason you
- 49:32Speaker 2: needed to, you had to replace them once. They didn't.
- 49:34Speaker 2: I just I mean, they tried to tell us, that's
- 49:36Speaker 2: why made the episode of the way they did. They
- 49:38Speaker 2: tried to tell us, but.
- 49:40Speaker 3: We're a bounce away. We're bouncing a play away from
- 49:42Speaker 3: being four and one right now, with a chance will
- 49:44Speaker 3: be five and one in a three game lead in
- 49:46Speaker 3: the division, you know. So it's not like we're olling five. Yes, right,
- 49:51Speaker 3: So they're they're winnable games coming up. They announced Bill's
- 49:55Speaker 3: had a tough schedule, but they have the easiest remaining
- 49:57Speaker 3: schedule based on how the seasons played out so far.
- 50:00Speaker 3: So you know that you got to look at that too,
- 50:03Speaker 3: and you know it's not a complete failure by any means.
- 50:06Speaker 1: Yet, but it has not got to be.
- 50:08Speaker 3: An idiot to know that this is unsustainable.
- 50:10Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree. Now as we begin to wrap up tonight.
- 50:13Speaker 2: You know, I really appreciate you tonight, DT, in all weeks,
- 50:17Speaker 2: just sharing your time with us. I'm here and I
- 50:19Speaker 2: know the fans love you as well as that night.
- 50:20Speaker 2: I know you're really excited about this. The Nickel City

- 50:27Speaker 2: City Vintage. Head on over to Queen City Vintage. You
- 50:29Speaker 2: can check them out on Instagram and Twitter. It's queen
- 50:32Speaker 2: Underscore City Underscore Vintage Underscore seven to one six. Our
- 50:35Speaker 2: buddy Nick is running a great site and now the
- 50:38Speaker 2: partnership is is starting to bear fruit. We are about
- 50:41Speaker 2: to have our first giveaway and I know DT is
- 50:43Speaker 2: really excited about it.
- 50:45Speaker 1: DT.
- 50:45Speaker 2: You know, for me, the game itself was it was
- 50:49Speaker 2: funny because my oldest two Kings, Bobby and Nate, were
- 50:52Speaker 2: coming back from Universal.
- 50:53Speaker 1: So we sent them to Universal.
- 50:55Speaker 2: For like a joint birthday party because it was Bobby's
- 50:58Speaker 2: birthday September. Nate's this in October, so, uh, you know,
- 51:02Speaker 2: their mother and I sent them and they went down
- 51:04Speaker 2: there to Orlando, so I was at home. So they're
- 51:07Speaker 2: they're coming back and it's almost game time. I've got
- 51:09Speaker 2: a I got a brisket. Because it was Houston. So
- 51:11Speaker 2: I had a brisket on the on the grill, smoking
- 51:14Speaker 2: and and Nate calls me from Bobby's phone.
- 51:17Speaker 1: Like right before kickoff, and he's like, you know, what's
- 51:20Speaker 1: the stream? Dad? And its net? So I said him
- 51:21Speaker 1: the stream and he's like, it's not working or whatever.
- 51:24Speaker 2: Now he is a true Bill's Bafia member, and I
- 51:26Speaker 2: know that that is my baby. I've definitely baptized him
- 51:29Speaker 2: with the Bafia because now as one o'clock starts to
- 51:32Speaker 2: get closer, he's starting to get fucking aggravated.
- 51:34Speaker 1: And he's like he keeps calling back like that it's
- 51:35Speaker 1: not working.
- 51:36Speaker 2: It's not working. I can hear his voice. I'm like,
- 51:38Speaker 2: I don't know what you want me to do. I'm like,
- 51:40Speaker 2: where's your mother? You know obviously she was driving and
- 51:42Speaker 2: they're driving back to Charlotte from Orlando. I'm like, where's
- 51:44Speaker 2: your mother, Like where's her phone? And she's yelling from
- 51:47Speaker 2: the driver's seat.
- 51:48Speaker 1: It's not working. Stream's not working.
- 51:50Speaker 2: I'm like, oh my god, you're about to get on
- 51:52Speaker 2: my nerves or whatever. I'm like, I don't know what
- 51:54Speaker 2: you want to say, Nate, I don't know what you
- 51:55Speaker 2: want to do. And then he's like, can we just FaceTime?
- 51:57Speaker 2: And I was like, no, no, no problem, son, no problem.
- 52:00Speaker 2: So ironically enough so that Bobby's mad because if they're
- 52:04Speaker 2: using Bobby's phone and he wants to obviously game and
- 52:06Speaker 2: do stuff on his phone.
- 52:07Speaker 1: On that long drive back from Orlando, I kid you not.
- 52:10Speaker 2: I had my phone right there on the ledge next
- 52:12Speaker 2: to the TV, and I positioned it on the ledge
- 52:14Speaker 2: where it was showing on the FaceTime and and me
- 52:16Speaker 2: and Nate FaceTime the entire game together, and it was
- 52:20Speaker 2: like I was watching it with them with him, even
- 52:22Speaker 2: though he was in a car miles and miles away.
- 52:24Speaker 2: So that was my tailgate before it had a little brisket,
- 52:27Speaker 2: some mashed potatoes, and I literally was at the house
- 52:30Speaker 2: by myself, dolo and literally watching it with my son
- 52:33Speaker 2: through FaceTime because he is a Bill's fanatic like his father,
- 52:36Speaker 2: and I've ruined his life because he's he's all in.
- 52:39Speaker 2: And he was by one, like one o'clock. He was like, yo, dude,
- 52:42Speaker 2: what's what the fuck is out? Like, it's not this
- 52:44Speaker 2: stream shit is not working. I'm like, man, I don't, okay,
- 52:47Speaker 2: watch it with me on on FaceTime. That's that's the
- 52:49Speaker 2: perfect idea. So that's that's my tailgate report. Man, watch
- 52:52Speaker 2: the game with my son.
- 52:54Speaker 3: Shout all date right there and Bobby, Bobby gotta watch.
- 53:00Speaker 3: There's only there's only seventeen of them.

- 53:55Speaker 3: of drivers, mostly retired, retired guys who you know move
- 54:01Speaker 3: move metal around for me. And last year, you know
- 54:05Speaker 3: award listener of Nickel City Crew Dad is now retired

- 54:23Speaker 3: and he's like, let's do let's have a bills party.
- 54:25Speaker 3: We had our first one last year and had great response,
- 54:29Speaker 3: so we this was the week we did it again.
- 54:31Speaker 3: I thought it would be a good game. Get that
- 54:33Speaker 3: fall October vibe, it was gonna be good weather. So
- 54:36Speaker 3: we had our our enterprise driver Bill's watch party.

- 58:03Speaker 2: Yorkers down here, so it's hard to turn around three
- 58:05Speaker 2: times without seeing somebody from Buffalo. So I get noticed
- 58:09Speaker 2: all the time because of my car and because of
- 58:11Speaker 2: the fact I'm always wearing Bill shit. So I love

- 58:38Speaker 2: gonna be supporting the great cause, I want to help out.
- 58:40Speaker 1: And I got a great concept for the shirt, and
- 58:42Speaker 1: it's now gonna have shit to do with me. It's all.
- 58:44Speaker 1: I mean, You're the start of the show is DT.
- 58:46Speaker 2: I love it, man, I love it would have it
- 58:47Speaker 2: no other way, man, dump Chuck I would have it
- 58:49Speaker 2: no other way.
- 58:50Speaker 1: Man.
- 58:50Speaker 2: As we wrap up tonight, you know, I'm looking forward
- 58:53Speaker 2: to Monday, honestly, DT, because I just I love chances
- 58:59Speaker 2: to see who we are. And I think that the
- 59:01Speaker 2: reason that I named the episode of the way that
- 59:03Speaker 2: I did it is it is definitely some tongue in cheek,
- 59:06Speaker 2: but it's also true. I think that they overall, I
- 59:09Speaker 2: think that they thought that they had to take a
- 59:11Speaker 2: It's very similar to when McDermott got here. How about
- 59:14Speaker 2: that everybody in Bills Mabya can relate to that. They
- 59:16Speaker 2: didn't think they were going to the damn playoffs that year.
- 59:19Speaker 2: They were surprised by how do we know that they
- 59:20Speaker 2: were surprised by the start of the team because they
- 59:23Speaker 2: traded for Calvin Benjamin halfway through the years, fat ass,
- 59:26Speaker 2: you know what I mean. And they traded for him
- 59:27Speaker 2: because they were like, damn, we're winning some games. We
- 59:29Speaker 2: might have a chance to have some momentum. They had
- 59:31Speaker 2: already did the shedding, they had already cut you know, Darius.
- 59:34Speaker 2: They had already got rid of those guys. You know
- 59:35Speaker 2: that they didn't want on the team anymore, The malcontents,
- 59:37Speaker 2: the Sammy Watkins, whoever they thought that they deemed didn't fit.
- 59:40Speaker 2: They got rid of same thing with Digs, like they
- 59:42Speaker 2: got rid of the guys that they didn't think fit,
- 59:44Speaker 2: and then they said, Okay, we're gonna sit here and
- 59:46Speaker 2: take our medicine.
- 59:47Speaker 1: What happened?
- 59:47Speaker 2: They left up on some wins, and then all of
- 59:49Speaker 2: a sudden they wanted to maximize and be competitive.
- 59:52Speaker 1: I would love if they would pivot.
- 59:54Speaker 2: If this continues to not work, especially after Sunday, and
- 59:57Speaker 2: pivot before the trade deadline comes up. And I just
- 1:00:00Speaker 2: I just won't hold my breath on it. Detail I
- 1:00:02Speaker 2: think that's why I'm gonna I'm gonna stand on that.
- 1:00:04Speaker 2: I think that they are prepared to take their medicine
- 1:00:07Speaker 2: this year. I think it's a mistake. I think it's
- 1:00:09Speaker 2: a big mistake because of the fact that Josh Allen's
- 1:00:11Speaker 2: in his prime. But there's not much, obviously I can
- 1:00:13Speaker 2: do about it, So I I if it doesn't work,
- 1:00:15Speaker 2: I'd love to see them pivot, but I I'm just
- 1:00:18Speaker 2: not gonna hold my breath on it.
- 1:00:19Speaker 1: That's all.
- 1:00:20Speaker 3: Hey, let's get Monday night a chance to go four
- 1:00:22Speaker 3: and two, two games up in what's turning out to
- 1:00:24Speaker 3: be a ship division right with the next games after that,
- 1:00:28Speaker 3: a Tennessee game at home at Seahawks, without at Indianapolis,
- 1:00:35Speaker 3: like some winnable games coming up to where you're back
- 1:00:38Speaker 3: to the Thanksgiving break with you know, into that bye
- 1:00:42Speaker 3: week with you know, you could be four or five
- 1:00:44Speaker 3: games over five hundred at that point. So I I'm
- 1:00:47Speaker 3: I'm confident. I think you know that I'm desperate for
- 1:00:50Speaker 3: them to get right and get back, and you know,
- 1:00:52Speaker 3: I think it's they're not They're not in a closed bubble.
- 1:00:55Speaker 3: They see the game just like we did. They know
- 1:00:58Speaker 3: that that was unacceptable the last two week, and I
- 1:01:00Speaker 3: hope it's taken personal and you know we do something
- 1:01:03Speaker 3: about it. Monday night, eight fifteen.
